Azure DevOps (TFS) to Github Migration

Unlock Modern Software Delivery. Ditch Legacy TFS. Move with Confidence.

Your teams are still shipping from Team Foundation Server. You know it’s slowing you down. But the migration to GitHub feels risky, code history, permissions, workflows, integrations… it’s a lot.

That’s where NKD Agility comes in. We help engineering organizations migrate from TFS (or Azure DevOps Server) to GitHub with clarity, control, and zero guesswork, so you can future-proof your development pipeline without disrupting delivery.

Unlock Modern Software Delivery. Ditch Legacy Source Control. Move with Confidence. Let’s Talk.

Why Migrate from TFS to GitHub?

Staying on TFS means staying stuck.

TFS is built for an era that no longer exists. In contrast, GitHub offers:

  • Modern, cloud-native CI/CD pipelines
  • Built-in security, secrets management, and compliance
  • Collaboration at scale with pull requests, issues, and GitHub Actions
  • Integration with AI-powered developer tools like Copilot

But most importantly: GitHub lets your teams move faster, safer, and smarter.

Why NKD Agility?

We don’t just lift and shift, we evolve how you work.

With Martin Hinshelwood (Microsoft MVP) and the NKD Agility team, you get a battle-tested, end-to-end migration approach:

Strategic Migration Planning

  • Assess repositories, build pipelines, customizations, and risks
  • Define GitHub repository architecture and access strategies

Seamless Code and History Transfer

  • Migrate complete history from TFS to Git (not just the latest version)
  • Automate repo structure transformation with minimal downtime

Seamless, Zero-Disruption Transitions

Your teams stay productive. Your pipelines improve, fast.

Capability That Lasts

Our embedded coaching builds real, long-term capability in your organisation.

The Cost of Waiting

Every day on TFS is a day your team is:

  • Missing out on modern DevOps capabilities
  • Carrying legacy friction and manual work
  • Struggling to onboard new developers
  • At risk of security gaps and operational blind spots

The Outcome

After working with NKD Agility, you’ll have:

  • Fully migrated, high-integrity GitHub repositories
  • GitHub-native CI/CD pipelines up and running
  • Developers empowered to move fast, commit safely, and collaborate effectively
  • A confident, modern DevOps culture aligned with your engineering strategy
